Get to Know:
The Climate Action Kit is a user-friendly STEM teaching tool that enables teachers to instruct coding and robotics lessons without requiring a computer science background.
Access to the Forward Education Learning Platform is included with every Climate Action Kit. Get started with step-by-step building & coding tutorials - perfect for beginners! Educators are supported with curriculum-aligned lessons and professional development resources.
Climate Action Lessons
With over 15 curriculum-aligned lessons and coding tutorials, it simplifies teaching and engages students through real-world applications. This kit comes with all the hardware pieces you need to build a variety of diverse climate action solution projects, making it suitable for grades 3-12 and catering to various age groups and skill levels.
The Climate Action Kit online lessons are aligned to a variety of educational standards including: NGSS, Common Core, CSTA, US State Standards, Canadian Provincial/Territorial Standards, and more to come!
Climate Action Kit Breakout Board
The Climate Action Kit Breakout Board acts as the heart, spine and brain of all Climate Action Kit projects. The Breakout Board is powered by an onboard battery (the heart) and transmits code from the micro:bit (the brain) through the board (the spine) to the various robotic components (the limbs).
Robotic Components
Each Climate Action Kit is equipped with a variety of robotic components, such as servo motors and sensors, which allow you to complete different projects.
Building Blocks
To complete each of the Climate Action Kit projects, students will use a variety of press-fit building blocks to create the structure of their prototypes
